Games similar to World of warcraft ?

Everquest is also f2p, and EQ2, EQ2 was released around the same time as WoW, EQ1 was released many years before, its showing its ages but you wont find another mmo on the planet with the same amount of content that EQ1 has.
 
Go to MMORPG.com and find a massive list of all MMO's, which genre they belong to (Sci-Fi/Fantasy/etc.) and a rating by the players. Be prepared though, it's a VERY long list.

Final Fantasy XIV: Realm Reborn is out in a few months. It looks like it'll be more fun than WoW.

Every game has this as their unofficial tagline, yet to see one that is to the population at large.

Really depends on what you find fun about WoW - havent played for a bit but the stuff i found good about it were the clear progression rewards, the ability to mix your character up *a bit* and I love PvP. Havent found anything like that yet, although secret world has quite good progression, and is a bit off beat. Looking forward to the Rift F2P.
 
From Geek.com :p

5 great games like World of Warcraft

Talisman Online
Allods Online

Here was another list I found:

1 - Guild Wars 2
2 - Star Wars: The Old Republic (SWTOR)
3 - EverQuest II
4 - Allods Online (Allods)
5 - DC Universe Online
6 - Perfect World

9 - Eden Eternal
10 - Knight Online
11 - Age of Conan
12 - Forsaken World
13 - Talisman Online
14 - Luvinia Online
15 - Florensia

Google is really handy ;)

Having played MMO's exclusively since 99 and pretty much every fantasy mmo ever released since then, i can honestly say that those 5 games listed on Geek.com are a joke, SWTOR was very very poor once you got past the story quests.

RIFT is great, i only recently cancelled my sub mainly because i play EQ1 almsot exclusively right now and also because its going f2p with very little restrictions, infact i predict this game will become huge with their f2p model. Other MMO's should really take note of this, give your customers more and they will likely reward you with sticking around longer and buying stuff from your shops, not to mention your expansion packs etc.

Also as mentioned previously, TSO is another good f2p game, i bought it at release but didnt really ever get into it, great graphics and good concepts, i just didnt get on with it personally though, occasionally i try it again though to see how its changed.

I think for most people WoW has peaked now and is in its declining years, most people i know who played it like me at release well into every expansion since have either quit totally, or only ever went back for expansions for a few weeks and then quit again.

Im personally waiting on ESO and EQN, hopefully both of these will see new light breathed into this flagging genre.
 
I remember playing a game called shaiya, in my head it was pretty world of warcraft related but then again ive never played/known much about it anyway. Take a look and see
 
just recently gave up on wow tried Rift as its f2p any liking it so far so much that I brought the addon pack for it shame blizzard didn't use some of the great features it has. Tried GW 2 as well couldn't get into that tho
